{{ | The '''USS ''Zephyr''''' was the last of five {{c|Saber}} vessels to be fully assembled at the Xerius Covandra Production Facility, [[ma:Napia II|Napia II]] in 2369. This was the only time that this facility ever produced warships, and it was only possible due to the modular nature of the Saber design. After this they returned to producing only civilian freighters. | ||
